Comparisons are made between magneto-hydrodynamics on cosmical and on laboratory scale. Magneto-hydrodynamic waves, turbulence, the generation of magnetic fields and thermal convection are discussed and a review is given of earlier experimental investigations. The possibilities are examined of realizing cosmical phenomena of this type in the laboratory.
